In this paper, we first propose a new FPGA routing method in which seversal netw are routed concurrently by applying the readitional maze routing method. We then introduce CMRF (concurrent maze Router for FPGA) which can be used for the routing of FpGAs of symmetrical array type by applying our new routing method. Given a set of nets, the proposed routing method performas the maze propagation and backtracing independently for each net and determines the routing paths concurrently by competition among nets. In CMRF, using this routing method, q nets are selected from the nets to be routed and they are routed concurrently, where q is the user given parameter determined by considering the computing environment. This process is repeated until either all the nets are routed or the remaining unrouted nets fail to their maze propagations. The routing of these nets are completed using the rip-up and rerouting technique. We apply our routing method to ten randomly generated test examples in order to check its routing performance. The results show taht as we increase the value of q, the routing completion rate increases for all the examples. Note that when q=1, our method is similar to the conventinal maze routing method. We also compare CMRF with the CGE method which has been proposed by Brown et.al. For the five benchmark examples, CMRF complete the routing with less wire segments in each connection block than the wire segments needed in the CGE method of 100% routing.

Intensity interferometry, based on the Hanbury Brown--Twiss effect, is a simple and inexpensive method for optical interferometry at microarcsecond angular resolutions. Motivated by recent technical developments, we argue that the sensitivity of large modern intensity interferometers can be improved by factors up to approximately 25,000, corresponding to 11 photometric magnitudes, compared to the pioneering Narrabri Stellar Interferometer of the 1970s when resolving. Our approach, based on spectrally resolved light, permits the construction of large optical interferometers at the cost of (very) long-baseline radio interferometers. Realistic intensity interferometers are able to spatially resolve main-sequence O-type stars in the Magellanic Clouds. Multi-channel intensity interferometers can address a wide variety of science cases: (i) linear radii, effective temperatures, and luminosities of stars; (ii) mass-radius relationships of compact stellar remnants; (iii) stellar rotation; (iv) stellar convection and the interaction of stellar photospheres and magnetic fields; (v) the structure and evolution of multiple stars; (vi) direct measurements of interstellar distances; (vii) the physics of gas accretion onto supermassive black holes; and (viii) calibration of amplitude interferometers by providing a sample of calibrator stars.

Strontium Titanate single crystal is grown by Verneuil method. Feed materials were prepared by coprecipitation method which started with Sr(NO3)2 and TiCl4. SrTiO3 can not be grown from feed materials having the stoichiometric components due to volatilization of SrO, when the powder added more 3 wt% SrO used, the crystal can be grown. Growth conditions that the pressure of oxygen and hydrogen gas was 5 psi, the flow rate of oxygen and hydrogen was 7.3 and 30ι/min respectively, the growth rate was 20 mm/hr were optimum. The grown single crystal has the diameter of 10~15 mm and its length is 30~40 mm. The grown crystal was deep brown color and somewhat transparent. The color of grown crystal was lightened after annealing.

A total of 252, 50 week-old Isa-brown laying hens were randomly allotted to 7 groups of 3 replicates. Mustard meal (MM) which is a by-product from mustard processing plant, was dried under the sun or in a gas heated pan. It contained on DM basis 30-32% CP, 19-22% EE and 12-13% CF. The meal from either drying method was incorporated into the diets at 0, 10, 20 and 30% which was equivalent to the substitution levels for soybean meal at 0, 31, 63 and 94%, respectively. All birds were individually kept in battery cages where feed and water were freely accessed throughout 84 days experimental period. It was found that egg production, feed intake, body weight gain and egg weight significantly decreased with the increased MM level. The inclusion of 20% MM did not show a significant difference in egg production and quality from the control, but produced 6-8% lower egg production. Feed intake was linearly decreased with the MM levels, except the 10% sun dried MM group. Fat deposition of the birds fed MM diets significantly decreased, while kidney weight increased when compared with the control group. However, the weight of thyroid glands and spleen trended to be heavier in the MM groups, but this was not significantly different among dietary treatments. It was concluded, MM from both drying methods could be incorporated in laying hen diets at the level of 10% without any adverse effect.

The possibility of producing the pigments from potash feldspar was studied by adopting the mechanical alloying technique under various gas environments. The experiments were carried out by varying grinding time with the addition of copper metal and titanium oxide in N₂, O₂, He, CO₂, H₂and air atmospheres. The mixture of the potash feldspar concentrate and copper and titanium dioxide are finely ground by a planetary ball mill, and then the composite powders were calcined at 1200℃ for 20 minutes. As a result, the calcined feldspar with 1 wt% of Cu has shown various colors like green in air, black in O₂, dark green in CO₂, brown in H₂, purple in He, and pale green in N₂ atmospheres, respectively.

미세플라스틱이 물 환경으로 배출되는 주요 경로로는 하수처리장 방류수와 강우유출수가 있다. 하수처리장 및 유역에서 배출된 미세플라스틱은 하천과 하구역을 거쳐 해양과 같은 대규모 수역으로 이동하는데, 이 과정에서 해양뿐만 아니라 담수호, 저수지 등과 같은 공공수역에도 미세플라스틱이 지속적으로 축적되고 있다. 특히 강우유출수에 포함된 미세플라스틱은 적절한 처리 과정 없이 하천으로 유입되는 경우가 많아 공공수역 내 미세플라스틱 저감 기술의 필요성이 증가하고 있다. 그러나 미세플라스틱 관련 기존 연구는 미세플라스틱의 분포 등 현황에 대한 모니터링 및 환경위해성과 관련한 것이 대부분이며, 미세플라스틱 저감기술 관련 연구 또한 일부 정수처리 및 하수처리 공정을 대상으로 하는 초기 단계의 연구가 진행되고 있을 뿐 공공수역에서의 미세플라스틱 저감기술 개발 관련 연구는 전무한 실정이다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 기존의 물리·화학적 수처리 공정인 용존공기부상법(Dissolved Air Flotation, DAF)에 물의 전기분해 시발생하는 브라운가스를 활용하여 응집된 물질을 빠르게 부상시켜 수체 내 오염물질을 제거할 수 있는 기술을 통해 수체 내 미세플라스틱 저감효과를 분석하였다. 또한, 해당 기술을 공공수역인 저수지에 적용하여 오염물질과 함께 미세플라스틱을 제거할 수 있는지 검토하였다.

Porokeratosis ptychotropica is an uncommon form of porokeratosis, which was initially described in 1995. It is clinically characterized by symmetrical reddish to brown-colored hyperkeratotic, verrucous, or psoriasiform plaques on the perianal and gluteal regions. The lesions tend to integrate and expand centrally, with small peripheral satellite lesions. Early skin biopsy and appropriate diagnosis are essential because malignant change occurs in 7.5% of porokeratotic lesions. Conventional treatment options include topical steroid, retinoid, imiquimod, 5-fluorouracil, isotretinoin, excimer laser, photodynamic therapy, intralesional steroid or bleomycin injection, cryotherapy, carbon dioxide (CO₂) laser, and dermatome and excision, but none seem to achieve complete clearance. A 68-year-old woman presented with diffuse hyperkeratotic scaly lichenoid plaques on the buttocks that had persisted for several years. A skin biopsy of the buttocks revealed multiple cornoid lamellae and intense hyperkeratosis. There were some dyskeratotic cells beneath the cornoid lamellae and the granular layer was absent. Porokeratosis ptychotropica was diagnosed based on the characteristic clinical appearance and typical histopathological manifestations. She was treated with a CO₂ laser in one session and topical application of urea and imiquimod cream for 1 month. The lesions slightly improved at the 1-month follow-up. We herein present a rare case of porokeratosis ptychotropica.

To investigate differences in lead content in soils and paddy rices, affected by air pollutants from the Janghang Smelter, soil samples at the different directions, distances, and depths, surface(0-15cm depth) and subsurface(15-30cm depth) in 1982 and 1990, and rice plants at soil sampling sites in 1990 were separately collected at the Janghang Smelter area affected by combustible waste gas from the smelter chimney. Soil samples were extracted with $4M-HNO_3$ and plant samples were digested with mixture of $HNO_3$ and $HCIO_4$ for analyzing by atomic absorption spectrophotometry. The Pb contents in soils ranged from 10.3 to 644.8mg $kg^{-1}$. The average content in 1990 was higher than that in 1982. The Pb content in soils at sites nearer the center of the smelter was higher than that at sites farther from the center. The highest lead content was found at the east direction, and was low in order of east>north-north east>north east > north. The variation of Pb level in soils at east sites was more considerable than other directions. The Pb level in surface soils was higher than that in subsurface soils. The contaminated radius of Pb was until 3km all at east, north-north east and north east. A significant correlation was found between Pb content in surface soils of 1982 and that in surface soils of 1990, between Pb content in soils and contents of Cd and Zn in soils, and between Pb content in soils and soil properties as organic matter, available silicate, cation exchange capacity, exchangeable $Ca^{++}$, $Mg^{++}$ and $Na^+$. Pb content in brown rice was low in the panicle axis, and brown rice, and Pb content in stem was 3.26 times of that in brown rice. Pb content in brown rice ranged from 2.2 to 9.0 mg $kg^{-1}$.

Biochemical and histological effects of ozone gas (0.3 ppm) on rice plant were discussed. After ozone expoure, damage symptom, percentages of destroyed leaves, activities of peroxidase and polyphenoloxidase, and the contents of flavonoid, protein and sugar were examined on two rice varieties (Seokwangbyeo, Jinjubyeo), on tillering stage, and at different exposure time (0, 1, 3, 5 hr). The result were as followed. 1. The ozone-injured cell adjoining stomata become pigmented red-brown. 2. The percentage of injured leaves in Jinjubyeo was higher than that in Seokwangbyeo. 3. The activities of peroxidase and polyphenoloxidase increased on ozone-injured leaves. 4. The peroxidase activity increased with time in Jinjubyeo compared to Seokwangbyeo. 5. Peroxidase isozyme spectrum was altered after ozone exposure. 6. The content of flavonoid and reducing sugar in the rice leaves was increased, but the contents of protein was reduced.

In previous paper (Lee et al., 1983) processing method of sardine meat "surimi" was described as a part of the wort to develop new types of ready-to-cook food materials with dark fleshed fishes. As the other part of the work, processing of low salt mackerel fillet was investigated, in this paper, in which fresh mackerel was filleted, salted in brine or with dry salt for an adequate time until the expected salt concentration reached, washed, air dried (3 m/sec, 15 to $20^{\circ}C$), and finally packed individually in K-flex film bag by vacuum or $N_2$ gas substitution. Salting time and salt concentration of brine was decided by the salt level penetrated into the fillet. As the final salt level was fixed to 4 to $5\%$, salting for 20 hours with $10\%$ dry salt or in $15\%$ brine at $5^{\circ}C$ was enough to get that level of salt. If the final salt level was set 5 to $6\%$, salting for 20-24 hours with $15\%$ dry salt or in $20\%$ brine was adequate. Salt penetration, however, was not much influenced by salting method and temperature. Changes in VBN and salt soluble protein occurred more rapidly in cases of salting with dry salt at $20^{\circ}C$ than salted in brine at $5^{\circ}C$, although it was not significant in the period of 20 to 24 hours. Oxidation of lipid and histamine formation during salting at $20^{\circ}C$ could not be neglected if it was delayed loger than 25 hours. Insolubilizing the salt soluble proteins during the storage of salted fillet occurred rapidly regardless of storage temperature. Browning and histamine formation, however, was depended on temperature and packing condition. In case of air pack, deterioration by browning and rancid was deeply developed but not the case for the packs by vacuum or $N_2$ gas substitution. The shelf-life of the salted mackerel fillet based on panel scores of brown color and rancidity, appeared 21 days for the air packed, and more than 30 days for vacunm or $N_2$ gas packed fillet at $20^{\circ}C$.
